List methods: Parent field

This rule enforces that all List standard methods have a string parent field in the request message, as mandated in AIP-132.

Details

This rule looks at any message matching List*Request and complains if the parent field is missing.

Examples

Incorrect code for this rule:

// Incorrect.
message ListBooksRequest {
  // Field name should be `parent`.
  string publisher = 1;  
  int32 page_size = 2;
  string page_token = 3;
}

Correct code for this rule:

// Correct.
message ListBooksRequest {
  string parent = 1;
  int32 page_size = 2;
  string page_token = 3;
}

Disabling

If you need to violate this rule, use a leading comment above the message. Remember to also include an aip.dev/not-precedent comment explaining why.

// (-- api-linter: core::0132::request-parent-required=disabled
//     aip.dev/not-precedent: We need to do this because reasons. --)
message ListBooksRequest {
  string publisher = 1;
  int32 page_size = 2;
  string page_token = 3;
}

If you need to violate this rule for an entire file, place the comment at the top of the file.
